Default Wild Garlic

The message
from "Colin Davidson" contains these words:

...


They're fruit bodies, aren't they, rather than the entire 'plant'?


Yes. But they're subterranean, so could be considered roots... Unless
perhaps not being allowed to dig up roots would allow us to hunt for corms
and tubers also?


No. Fungus has a mycelium, not a root.

Are truffles 'plants'?


No. But is a fungus legally different?


Yes, though certain mainly ignorant but influential voices are trying to
get legislation enacted that will effectively prevent anyone from
picking fungi.
